Kanda from Chiang Mai, Thailand left a career in finance to pursue a passion for celadon ceramics. Now she has her own workshop that employs local craftspeople and provides them with a decent living. This gorgeous lidded bowl is named bai bua (lotus leaf) for the bowl's shape and the detailed veined design. It is finished with the traditional green glaze, as well as an earthy brown for the rim and the lid's handle. The crackled finish is typical of genuine celadon ceramics.

What a delightful tiny plate this is. Can elegantly hold mints, toothpicks, etc at a dinner table, or rings at a bedside stand. Or, one can just hold it and admire the expert crafting, delicate color and smooth surface like I do. Makes a great little display gift that demonstrates an ancient technique.

Hello Kanda, I received your beautiful little jar. Ive read about your journey and I must say Im glad youve kept that link with your mom by creating these Celadon ceramic pieces. She must be so proud. I would like to add that in addition to your talent, you have a great sense of finishing. Thank you for wrapping the piece I chose in this paper and adding this pretty ribbon. Your parcel made the trip without a hitch and without the slightest breakage. I wish you many more years of success! Thank you so much!

Got this for my 98 year old mom who loves cats. Thus was a much loved present.
